List of products by brand Domaine Bruno Lupin

Located in Frangy, between Annecy and Geneva, Domaine Bruno Lupin spans just 5 hectares, exclusively dedicated to the Altesse grape. Bruno Lupin, a former cooperative oenologist who returned to his family roots, has made his estate the flagship of the Frangy cru. His philosophy is simple: limited yields, respectful viticulture (no herbicides), and precise winemaking that lets the mineral tension of the molasse soil shine. His wines stand out for their rare balance between a silky texture and vibrant acidity, with aging potential that often surprises connoisseurs. This is the essential signature for discovering Savoyard purity.

The Verticality of Frangy

Bruno Lupin’s style is instantly recognizable for its directness and aromatic brilliance, avoiding any heaviness.

The pillars of Bruno Lupin's expertise:

  • The Frangy Cru: This specific terroir benefits from a protected microclimate and molasse (calcareous sandstone) soils. This gives Altesse a more pronounced minerality and finer acidity than elsewhere in Savoie.

  • Respect for the Fruit: Harvesting is done by hand, and grapes are pressed with extreme gentleness. Bruno favors indigenous yeasts to preserve the identity of each vintage.

  • Protective Winemaking: Aging occurs primarily in stainless steel tanks on fine lees to preserve the grape's freshness. Bruno never uses oak, ensuring the delicate notes of hazelnut and pineapple typical of Altesse are not masked.

  • Aging Potential: Contrary to popular belief about Savoie wines, Bruno Lupin’s Roussettes gain nobility after 3 to 5 years in the bottle, developing notes of honey and white truffle.
